We know all about motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine.

Land Rover recommends having your 1987 Land Rover Range Rover’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your Range Rover may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust.

More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Land Rover Range Rover. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 1987 Land Rover Range Rover

  • What can low oil do to my Land Rover Range Rover engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your Land Rover Range Rover engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Land Rover oil on my own? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Land Rover Range Rover exhaust smoke grayish or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Land Rover Range Rover oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Land Rover Range Rover oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • What does it mean if my Land Rover Range Rover oil light comes on? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Land Rover Range Rover oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Does my Range Rover's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? Every time you change the oil in your Land Rover Range Rover, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
